The Club At Viniterra
About
Situated between Richmond and Williamsburg, the Club at Viniterra sprawls across abundantly wooded hills. There is no shortage of elevation changes on this Rees Jones and Greg Muirhead-designed golf course. There is a difference of as much as 70 feet from the tee to the green on most of the holes. When combined with the mature trees, the result is a tough layout that demands accuracy. Thankfully though, there are not many water hazards to contend with but there is strategically placed bunkering throughout. The golf course also provides a scenic round with working vineyards running alongside the lush fairways. In addition to being challenging, the Club at Viniterra prides itself on their environmentally sensitive practices. The golf course saves as much as 80 percent of the water used on traditional courses thanks to the use of a drought-resistant grass hybrid.

Winter golf at Viniterra
Considering this was mid-January, it was a good day to play at 57 and no wind. They have bermuda fairways which were dormant and brown, but in decent shape considering. We had had a lot of rain, so the course was soggy in places. The greens weren't as bumpy as I thought they'd be in January. Good mix of holes - short, long; dogleg right and left; The pace of play was fine the first 9, even though I was a single following a twosome, who were following a threesome. But the threesome really slowed down and it took over 2.5 hours to play that nine. No ranger. Two criticisms - in some cases the cart path is far off and lower than the fairway, so I had a hard time knowing where my ball was. With CPO, it was a pain on about 4-5 holes. Second, the path from 9 to 10 didn't go past the clubhouse, and there were NO facilities anywhere on the course (not a big deal for guys, but female golfers beware). It was only the second time I had played there, and I look forward to playing during the summer when the bermuda is thick and green. There is just a small temporary clubhouse right now, but this is at a winery with a beautiful reception and tasting center across the street.
Fun course
Played for 45 dollars. There was a frost delay which happens in December. The course was in good shape the greens as always were amazing. Can't beat it for 45 dollars
18 holes
nice beautiful location,,, very long coarse , not for everyone,,, dont think you can walk this one,
great course
This was the first time I play this course.I found the course in GREAT shape . The fairways were wide and lots of sand around the greens which made for a very challenging round of golf. I find this course to be one of the best in the area.
Great Place to Play
This course is a model of how a course should be run. Conditions are consistently great. It was really challenging layout when I played from back tee(Black tee). I am planning to come back with my friends to challenge again. This course is worth seeking out.
A step above
This course always seem to be a step above the all the other courses in the area. Thank you for making my day of golf very special.

A must play
Awesome golf tract with an above average friendly staff--pick the correct set of tees to play to give yourself a chance at a good number.
Great Course!
Viniterra is one of the most challenging courses I've ever played - but thoroughly enjoyable. Despite being cold, the course was in great condition - and very difficult greens. Can't wait to try it again!
Extremely difficult and challenging
The course is in excellent shape for this time of year.It is extremely challenging and I plan to play it again.
Love fall golf
Well this was my second time playing Viniterra, first time middle August. Like the course . Challenging and numerous tee boxes to fit any golfer advance to intermediate . Not as enamored as first time I played. Beautiful , scenic but there were holes I did not remember. Some memorable , others average. Overall good condition , greens fast but true and in great shape . Numerous forced carries could upset the beginner And sand traps abound. No clubhouse really so don't plan on long stay at the nintenth hole. Overall a joy and very scenic 18 holes.
Nice course
Nice course, good value. Course harder than it looks, with wide open fairways but plenty of traps of you go astray. Definately one of the best in the Williamsburg area.
Cold weather - golf great course conditions
The course was great condition despite it had rained the night before. Course seemed to have drained fairly well. The greens were fast & true and lush.
Hidden Gem
All about the course! No clubhouse yet! Hopefully this course stays in business long enough for that to happen. In great condition. Challenging enough from the green tees for this 16 hc'er.
great layout with some very challenging tee shots
Course is beautifully laid out across a variety of terrain. Greens are challenging but fair. Generally there is more room off the tee than you might think.
Long, well-maintained course
This course has some long par 4's. I played from the middle set of tees and there were quite a few long par 4's and no notably short par 4's. The par 3's and par 5's were of reasonable length though. Choose your set of tees wisely. While the course is surrounded by woods in most places, there are some generous fairways rewarding marginal accuracy.
I would highly recommend this course if the price is right. I found a good deal on golfnow.com. It is located in a sort of "desert" for good golf on I-64, making it a good stopping point while traveling or visiting either Richmond or Williamsburg. Overall, I enjoyed the course and was impressed with its condition this late in the year.
Long but fun
Enjoyed this course again. Still real tough. Greens were running out like crazy
Best Course I've Played
I'm still fairly new to golf, and while my abilities are not up to par with the course, it is still my favorite course that I've played. The course is beautiful and has been in great condition all three times I've played there this season.
Overall, I think this is a great course to play and would recommend it to anyone.
Great test!
Very good course, fast greens and good pace of play. Good value for the $$
FANTASTIC LAYOUT IN GREAT SHAPE
We played the course on a beautiful day in early October. The "facilities" are not very impressive, but the course was fantastic--in great shape, and a very scenic layout all around. It was somewhat difficult, and you should be careful of the tees you choose. There are very few homes on the course for now, but that may change in the future. Greens true and very fast. Will play again when in the area.
Terrific Course, Tough but Fair
This is a great course! Terrific design and in excellent condition. It is TOUGH! Fair, but very tough. It is the best value for the money in the Richmond VA area...
